Lock in a great price for Sanctuary Hotel New York – rated 8.8 by recent guests!

to get started.

Breakfast selection was good, but the scrambled eggs were dry both days. Loved the rooftop bar!

Cheryl, United States of America

I have traveled for over 40 years both for business and pleasure and I would rate this hotel as one of the top 3. The staff was absolutely top notch. The hotel is beautiful, the bed extremely comfortable and the location is perfect. I will definitely choose this hotel on my next trip to NYC and recommend it to all my friends and family.

John, United States of America

;The staff were uniformly pleasant and extremely helpful. They made the hotel a delightful place to stay.

Steven, Turkey

The staff were very welcoming and remembered us from our last visitand we remembered them, it's always a bonus seeing familiar faces. I think the staff enjoy working there. They knew the type of things we liked doing and the places we wanted to see.

Wayne, New Zealand

Although the room was a bit small it was clean, the bed was comfortable and all the staff associated with the hotel were awesome!! I would definitely stay there again!!

Anita, United States of America

The location was excellent with almost everything within walking distance. The rooftop bar was what made this hotel really special though, especially on a warm summers day.

Corrina, United Kingdom

The location is great, one block off Times Square. Hotel and room was clean.

Dj, United States of America

Rooms are slightly on small side but 100yards from Times Square so location makes this a trivial complaint. Heaven restaurant on roof was brilliant, great service and food.

Paul, United Kingdom

Most things - very comfortable and clean room, excellent reception, concierge, porter and cleaning staff. Fantastic location. Free and efficient wifi. In fact, almost everything except the point below.

“Unhappy stay at Sanctuary Hotel”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Superior Queen Room
- • Stayed 7 nights
- • Submitted from a mobile device
눉Rooms are awfully small. If you arrive with 2 suitcases, this Hotel is not suitable as there is simply no room to move. The first double room did not even have a bedside table on one side but an 18 inch wide cupboard for hanging clothes. There was no storage space for clothes. The light switches often did not work The lobby, corridors, rest rooms are in semi-darkness. It's not possible for proper cleaning of public areas. Breakfast was a disaster! It essentially consisted of crispy bacon, scrambled eggs and roast potatoes. Every day they ran out of bacon and scrambled eggs. After the first two days I skipped breakfast for the rest of our 1-week stay. It is not the first time that we stayed in a small bedroom, such as in London, but the bedrooms at the Sanctuary Hotel do not meet the minimum standard of any Hotel, let alone a 4 Star Hotel. I have never been in a 4 Star Hotel where the shower is a glass cubicle 3 feet from your bed! We travel about 10 times a year and I thought that I had learned how to scrutinize Tripadvisor and Booking.com customer reviews. I now know that I need to pay more attention to the individual comments and less attention to the Score which is unreliable. I cannot imagine how Booking.com could arrive at a score of 8.8 (Fabulous) for this Hotel.
눇Location is excellent and staff are helpful.

“Not my sanctuary”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group of friends
- • Double Room with Two Double Beds
- • Stayed 4 nights
눉Lighting is extremely dark throughout the lobby and hall ways while navigating to your room. At all times your room card must be inserted in a slot in the wall within the room in order to have the lights and AC functioning, which is inconvenient. I was not told about this at check in, and was a little annoying trying to figure out. The window in my room was slightly unhinged and would not completely close. For the entirety of my trip the AC was escaping the room and consistently was keeping the room hotter than it should have been. City noise was also impossible to drown out due to this. Continental breakfast felt like being in line at a school cafeteria--long line of people waiting for food, and the hot food continued to run out. I had to wait in line three separate times to finally get eggs. They had one person at the serving station responsible to serve a line of 20 people at a time, with 4 or 5 different things to be served which caused long waits in line to finally get your food. Not the best run breakfast buffet I've been to to say the least. As a man in my upper 20's I consistently felt that the staff was looking down upon me throughout my stay. The feeling I got from the hotel staff and atmosphere of the hotel was "snoody". Multiple times I was stopped in the lobby and asked for my hotel card to prove I was staying in the hotel. Horrible experience at the rooftop bar/restaurant in which it took 20 minutes to get my drinks, an hour to get my food (which I was told never got put in until I questioned when we'd be served 30 minutes after ordering). I had a third person coming to meet myself and my other guest that I didn't originally plan on having at dinner (but it became more and more likely that they'd arrive during dinner as we continued to wait to be served). Myself and my other dining guest were seated at a two person table, and an uninhabited four person table was right next to us.
눇The location is great, one block off Times Square. Hotel and room was clean.
